Metabolic Testing
Athletes and people interested in their good health alike need data in order to fully understand exactly how their bodies react to exercise and calorie intake. We use technology to measure exactly how ones body utilizes calories at rest and during exercise. The product of this type of testing is information that allows a person to modify their output (exercise program) to take better advantage of their response to increasing heart rates, and also to modify their diet to optimize their calorie intake. Athletes make good use of the data in modifying training and racing strategies, and average people make good use of the data as they work to improve their health status and body composition. There are two tests involved in metabolic testing:
- Resting test
- Aerobic cardio-respiratory test
The testing utilizes the latest in technology to give accurate data and secure for each person their “metabolic fingerprint.” Since each person has a unique metabolism, the only way to accurately make sense of questions around diet and exercise is to establish metabolic baselines.
